jonnie bravo 572 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 Birch polypore mate, off the top of head edible but pretty rank, but don't take my word for it. I think dried you can use it as tinder... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

YOKEL 2,322 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 deffo not c.o.t.w. i'd go with above, birch polypore, it's edible in as much as it wont kill you, but it's tough and bitter tasting... Yokel Quote Link to post Share on other sites
jonnie bravo 572 Posted November 30, 2015 Report Share Posted November 30, 2015 You found it on dead silver birch most likely mate, it's very common stuff around me. Just cut into strips and dry as much as poss I reckon. I think you can use it as bandage type stuff when fresh but again don't quote me on that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
